Which wheel? Valo-gt or savu pro
I’m looking to replace my g920 wheel with the simucube 3 base. Probably the pro, the ultimate seems very expensive but somehow people are still very positive about it in reviews so I’m thinking on it. I just really don’t need all that torque 😂 but I do like the idea of having The latest and greatest tech on offer.
My main concern is the wheel choice though, I have no experience with other brands, I just know that my Logitech wheel doesn’t have enough buttons, switches and dials to program all the functions and features that I want.
I’m racing in VR too which adds another layer of complexity in my choice. Not only do I need enough buttons on my wheel, I also have to be able to find them blindly as I can’t see my actual wheel. It also takes away the need to get a wheel with a display built in as I can’t see that display anyway, as I’ve stopped bothering trying to setup the passthrough feature Using quest 3.
I like the idea of staying with a round wheel but the savu pro is also very appealing to me.
Are there any “buyer be aware” kind of things for either wheel? Things you only found out after purchase that you wish you knew before? Anyone here has both who can tell me the pro and cons of either wheel? Any good reviews to be found on either wheel? Which do you think is best to use in VR?
Right now after about a year of simracing I’m 2700ir with my Logitech g920 wheel. I replaced the Logitech pedals because the throttle kept getting stuck at 5 or 10%, so I changed those out for an active ultimate pedal with 2 passive pedals about 3 months ago. Had some calibration issues with my passive pedals during the massive heatwave but customer support was amazing so I’m happy to keep buying into the simucube eco system. I could climb higher with my current setup but after a rough and eventful month (and some tough weeks still ahead) I’ve decided to treat myself to a decent wheel and base. I mean it would be nice to actually feel things through my wheel and not just rely on audio and visual cues the game gives me for certain scenarios. My rig will be disassembled for the better part of the next month so would be nice to build it back up with a new wheel and base.
